ARK Survival Evolved UPDATE: the patch notes for PS4 and Xbox One reveal new Fun Game changes

Studio Wildcard has confirmed that a new update of ARK Survival Evolved will be launched today on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

After moving the huge patches released in the initial development of the game, the development team is now focused on fine tuning the game.

Today's big update includes some new changes for fans on all platforms and also brings a new event.

Valentine's Day celebrations are now being activated through the servers and include some new prizes and bonuses.

Players will see new wild creatures colored red, pink and white that roam the ARKs, or most of the official versions of the game.

Studio Wildcard also confirmed that during mating, creatures will have a 25% chance of dropping an object.

This article could be one of many things, including a Valentine Chocolate that restores full HP or drops 40% off on a bar to tame creatures, or a Valentine candy, which gives vat to random colors of dino when it is eaten.

There will also be a series of active bonuses during the Valentine's ARK event, including:

Enhanced Mate range increased by 2x

Coupling coupling and coupling recovery increased 3 times

The incubation and incubation rate of eggs has been increased 3 times

Consumption of food for children has decreased by 1/3

A new limited-time feature will see survivors being able to send a personalized Valentine card, which can be done by going to playark.com/valentines.

As for today's update release, ARK Survival fans on PC and Xbox One should have already received it.

Those on PS4 may have to wait a little longer, with the official ARK Survival support team confirming:

"The patch for the Valentine's Day event for PC, Mac / Linux and Xbox is now available! PS4 coming soon."

Tomorrow we will also see some server interruptions while Studio Wildcard performs maintenance.

"On February 13, starting at 7:00 am EST, we will perform a small maintenance on a portion of our official NA servers," reads the ARK support message.

"During this time the servers will go offline in succession, so everything will not drop off promptly at 7 am.

"Servers will not be running during this maintenance period when they are not available. We expect that the entire maintenance will take a few hours, but the servers will reboot shortly after being removed, which should minimize time of individual inactivity.

"It is also worth noting: in the next patch we will rename all legacy servers to include" LEGACY "in their names.

"This change will not affect your favorites, but the name will be changed there to reflect the new name.The legacy servers will use the following format: LEGACY-servername.ex: LEGACY-OfficialServer2.

"This change applies to all platforms that have Legacy servers, but legacy servers will still be placed on the official Legacy Servers tab in the server browser."

Patch notes were also released for the new update and all changes made to the game were confirmed. They can be found below for PS4 and Xbox One, revealing a number of exploits that have been removed.
